The Government of Canada has announced that it will expand the Integrated Youth Services (IYS) to make mental health care more accessible for youth across the country. As part of this announcement, Canada’s Minister of Mental Health and Addictions and Associate Minister of Health Ya’ara Saks announced the launch of the IYS Data Platform, which will provide researchers, decision-makers, service providers, and others access to data sets to support youth health care related to mental health and substance use. The Canadian Institutes of Health Research will provide over $17M over four years to support the development of the platform.
